Spirit Lead Me

“I choose gentleness...

Nothing is won by force. I choose to be gentle.

If I raise my voice, may it be only in praise.

If I clench my fist, may it be only in prayer.

If I make a demand, may it be only of myself.”

― Max Lucado

Springtime Has Arrived!

Well hello Spring, you are looking mighty beautiful my friend!

Spring

- Andrea Vanzo -

SPRING, THE SWEET SPRING

By Thomas Nashe

Spring, the sweet spring, is the year’s pleasant king,

Then blooms each thing, then maids dance in a ring,

Cold doth not sting, the pretty birds do sing:

Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!

The palm and may make country houses gay,

Lambs frisk and play, the shepherds pipe all day,

And we hear aye birds tune this merry lay:

Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo!

The fields breathe sweet, the daisies kiss our feet,

Young lovers meet, old wives a-sunning sit,

In every street these tunes our ears do greet:

Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to witta-woo!

Spring, the sweet spring!

Love, Be Mystical

OUR MOMENTS TOGETHER

Myst 3: Exile Soundtrack

- 12 Theme From Edanna ~

“Love, be

mystical

as the flickering

blue flame

of night

as the fully-awoken

moon

beneath cobwebs

of passing clouds

amidst chanting

high-tides

fuzzy,

as my blanket

big enough

to illuminate a hundred

thousand billion galaxies

and just small enough to fit

into my embrace.”

― Sanober Khan, Turquoise Silence

While I am in search for the most terrifying Second Life locations,

my Steppenwolf is always looking for the total opposite.

Tonight, he took me on a beautiful mystical journey at

The Girl With Many Eyes

One day in the park

I had quite a surprise.

I met a girl

who had many eyes.

She was really quite pretty

(and also quite shocking!)

and I noticed she had a mouth,

so we ended up talking.

We talked about flowers,

and her poetry classes,

and the problems she'd have

if she ever wore glasses.

It's great to know a girl

who has so many eyes,

but you really get wet

when she breaks down and cries.

― Tim Burton

Tears Are Words The Heart Can't Say

If I showed you my teardrops,

Would you collect them like rain,

Store them in jars,

That are labeled with “Pain”,

Would you follow their tracks,

From my eyes down my cheeks,

As they write all the stories,

I’m too scared to speak,

Would you stop them with kisses,

Bring their flow to a halt,

As you teach me that pain,

Isn’t always my fault,

Would you hold my face gently,

As you dry both my eyes,

And whisper the words,

“You’re too precious to cry”,

If I showed you my teardrops,

Would you show me your own,

And learn though we’re lonely,

We’re never alone.

-e.h.

I AM STRONGER THAN ALL THESE!

These are the words you will find me repeating over and over again since the year 2022 started.

Sometimes the dark tunnels that we are forced to cross in life seem endless but the light is always

guaranteed at the end. The thing is to stay strong during the crossing.

No matter how short or long our tunnels are, I promise you, they all have an end

and things will get better... much better.

I AM STRONGER THAN ALL THESE!

When The Lights Go Out

Written by Stephanie Carlson

The lock on the closet rattles

The cries from within get louder as

I try to close my eyes

Sleep never comes easy because then

I must slip from this disguise

My smile fades, and positivity drains

Relentless to my sighs, the past prevails

Cracking concrete walls and rebuilding burnt ties

Moments seem like hours as the memories pour in

It will be morning before I find control again

Skeletons persist to be released

From these walls, I have built around them

Never remember the past as it is

Forget and move on I swore,

But when the lights go out and the stars color the sky

I am safe from them no more.

Put Your Lights On

Through The Nothingness

From “Nothing”, one of the short stories in “Fight! Rabbit! Fight!”

― Laurie Matthew, Fight! Rabbit! Fight!

“….Nothing was inevitable. She had not chosen this way. It was her fate.

It had been decided since before time began. It had been decided before she began.

Nothing could be done. There was no point in trying. It was way too late.

The inevitability of nothing was totally supreme, overriding everything.

No way out. No way through. She could only accept the unacceptable.

She could only endure the unendurable. Nothing was wrong!

Nothing was wrong and the wrongness of this awesome nothing seeped from her.

Some people, only a few, saw it.

Some people, only a few felt it.

Some people, only a few, recognized it and in recognizing it for what it was, raged against it.

Through the nothingness, these few reached out for her.

She could not reach back. Through the nothingness, these few fought for her.

She could not fight back for herself. Through the nothingness, these few cared for her.

She could not care back for herself. Through the nothingness, these few

spoke out for her, shattering the frozen silence over and over again.

She could not speak out for herself…. “

*I hope this may give some comfort to people who need it.

There are good, caring people (whether outside or within yourself, if need be)

and you do deserve to be cared for and supported as much as anyone else does."

❄ Winter Time ❄

Flickr

“Winter Time” by Robert Louis Stevenson

Late lies the wintry sun a-bed,
A frosty, fiery sleepy-head;
Blinks but an hour or two; and then,
A blood-red orange, sets again.

Before the stars have left the skies,
At morning in the dark I rise;
And shivering in my nakedness,
By the cold candle, bathe and dress.

Close by the jolly fire I sit
To warm my frozen bones a bit;
Or with a reindeer-sled, explore
The colder countries round the door.

When to go out, my nurse doth wrap
Me in my comforter and cap;
The cold wind burns my face, and blows
Its frosty pepper up my nose.

Black are my steps on silver sod;
Thick blows my frosty breath abroad;
And tree and house, and hill and lake,
Are frosted like a wedding-cake.
